I just saw this plane in my APs shop. That is a 850 HP PT 6 with a composite prop hung on this bad boy. Pressurized little speed demon.

I can imagine a go around.... Full power.... You may run out of rudder pretty fast...
That is a lot of power.

That's way cool!

And now you can get an Evolution with a BRS chute!!!!

Ahhh.... that's it... Too much power - Is that really a problem????

I love the Evolution. It's airline killer. It's all you really need.

Probably and awesome machine... as far as too much power, you could easily say the same thing about the P-51, right?

No - an airframe designed for X hp will have control surfaces appropriate to the engine. It's quite possible to make a plane uncontrollable with power the rudder can't handle.

You don't need to go full power if that truly is even an issue.

Of similar note is the TBM 850, which on takeoff is "just" a TBM 700 - when takeoff flaps are raised, then the power limiter is adjusted to allow the full 850 HP. Apparently there is just too much p-factor and torque roll at lower speeds for the rudder (and ailerons?) to handle.

Beware, since that Evolution has an even smaller rudder (and every other control surface).

I've read from multiple reputable sources that the Mustang has more horsepower than the control surfaces can handle at low speeds. A P-51 owner told me that go-arounds are a tough maneuver to execute well.

I was surprised at how small the wings and control surfaces were on this plane. Stall is 68 kts.

When you don't hang it on the prop!

When you don't hang it on the prop!

I operate an 850 HP Evo. Once you go through the training and get familiar with the airframe its a pretty docile airplane. Take off is @ 55% Power. * If at altitudes like Toluca, México 8,500 feet altitude I use 65-70% Power with full fuel, passengers, bags + 30 gal Aux tank. Once 1,000 feet above the ground.- clean the bird and then Power Up!! * I do recognize you can´t go full power in go-around or you will certainly run out of rudder!
Stall is 61 kts "but" learned from experience that if your carrying too much fuel and full passengers you have to increase speed a bit so yes, it can be curve from 61 kts and highter depending on landing weight...


Happy Landings

I'm jealous!
